I never had any experience with Mr. Welborn so please do not take this review as being directed to him. My complaint is with Matthew Benton. Matthew Benton does not return calls, he does not do his best in representing you, and he is a outright horrible lawyer. I gave Mr. Benton a ton of evidence to use to prove false allegations of a CPS report and Mr. Benton chose not to use any of it. I would write him notes to question the only two witness that were questioned and he refused to ask them those important questions. In the end, Mr. Benton did "get me off" on a technicality but said absolutely nothing as a judge went off saying how horrible of a mother I was to my children at least 5 times and then proceeded to tell my husband to seek emergency custody of my children and she would sign the papers. The next day that judge did exactly that and when I called Mr. Benton they said he would represent me but I was going to have to put down a huge retainer and everything else. In my opinion, this is how he operates to bring more money into the firm for himself. It's beyond dishonest. Needless to say, he still won't return any of my phone calls. If he had a clear conscious and felt he did the best to his ability then he would take this on with no questions asked. He's crooked!
